Lately I've been looking at some PFP/membership passes again, honestly I'm quite conflicted: am I buying a "long-term identity," or just attention for a while? When the group is lively, everyone talks about various benefits, collaborations, and airdrop expectations, but when things cool down, all that's left are profile pictures still hanging on the blockchain... The more I see people hanging orders until they cool off, the more laid-back I become.

Thinking about how recently the "yield stacking" of staking and shared security has been criticized as a copycat scheme, it actually has the same vibe: pre-discounting future stories, everyone just has fun first and then talks. If a brand can truly grow, it still depends on whether there's continuous delivery and community atmosphere, rather than stacking benefits/rights layer by layer. Anyway, I'm just watching a few key price points now, waiting patiently, no rush.
